Chapter 1665 Neverending Burning Hell (3)
Nantian Fengyu's face sank. She was about to ignite her Divine Phoenix bloodline, but Yun Lintian suddenly appeared beside her and prevented her from doing so.
"Qingqing, Linlin." Yun Lintian uttered, and the wind and lightning swords appeared in both of his hands.
At the same time, Linlin and Qingqing unleashed their powers, transforming the entire space into a realm of wind and thunder.
Rumble—
Following the explosion, the powerful divine energy on Yun Lintian's body surged as he crossed his swords and slashed through the descending sea of black flames, creating a terrifying arc of wind and lightning.
The symbols of the Storm and Thunder on Yun Lintian's Divine Core lit up intensely, greatly enhancing Yun Lintian's strength.
BOOOM!
With a loud bang, the entire sea of black flames was abruptly severed and dispersed into countless small fragments. Within a ten-kilometer radius, the earth was ultimately overturned.
The man's eyes bulged, and his mouth gaped. He couldn't believe what had just happened in front of him. However, there was no time for him to think, as Yue Chuntao had already lunged her sword towards his heart.
The man hastily brought the cauldron over, attempting to shield himself from the oncoming attack.
"This trick again?" Yue Chuntao sneered, as she had anticipated this ahead of time. A thick ice lance suddenly emerged from below the cauldron and propelled it into the sky, enabling Yue Chuntao's sword to penetrate the man's heart.
"Ugh!" The man groaned in pain. He tried to muster his strength but discovered that his profound vein had been completely frozen.
"Die!" Yue Chuntao shouted as she exerted strength into the sword. Instantly, the man's chest bulged and exploded. His entire body was instantly shattered into countless pieces.
A peak Divine Emperor died just like that...
Yue Chuntao utilized her divine energy to incinerate the man's remains and extended her hand to catch the descending cauldron. Since the man was dead, the Demon Sealing Cauldron had become free, and she could refine it if she wanted.
"Are you alright?" Nantian Fengyu looked at Yun Lintian's exhausted expression and asked worriedly.
Yun Lintian put the swords away and replied. "I'm fine. I just used too much energy."
To counter the attack from the Divine Emperor, Yun Lintian had spent more than eighty percent of his energy. Obviously, his current strength was inadequate to engage in a direct confrontation with a peak Divine Emperor.
He patted the heads of Qingqing and Linlin and said softly. "Thank you."
"That ugly man was so hateful." Qingqing pouted. "Thankfully, he is gone now."
Linlin didn't say anything and simply enjoyed Yun Lintian's touch.
Yue Chuntao floated over with the cauldron and said. "We should find a place to rest and recover first."
Yun Lintian looked around briefly and decided to return to the cliff. "Let's go back there."
The three of them landed on the cliff and set up a formation before replenishing their strength.
Nantian Fengyu wore a solemn expression for a while now as she hated herself for being useless. The appearance of the man served as a wake-up call for her, making her realize again that she was incredibly weak, not even worth being counted as an ant.
"Heh. Now you know how weak you are." Yue Chuntao glanced at her and said mockingly.
"Yes." Nantian Fengyu admitted it flatly.
Yue Chuntao was taken aback by Nantian Fengyu's answer. She didn't expect her to admit it honestly like this. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
Yun Lintian looked at Nantian Fengyu and said. "You don't have to think about it too much, Fifth Sister. That person was no less than a hundred thousand years old. He had spent more time practicing than all of us here."
Nantian Fengyu shook her head and said. "I am aware of it, but it doesn't change the fact that I am too weak."
She raised her head to look at the sea of lava below and said. "The environment here is suitable for me. I'm planning to stay here."
"Are you crazy? Do you know how dangerous this place is?" Yue Chuntao frowned in dissatisfaction. "If you want to practice, it's better to wait until we go back."
"That's right, Fifth Sister. I'm not going to leave you here alone." Yun Lintian said with a serious expression.
Nantian Fengyu wanted to refute, but she couldn't say a word after seeing Yun Lintian's dead serious expression. She could only accept it reluctantly. "Alright. I'm sorry for causing you unnecessary trouble."
Yun Lintian felt relieved. "No, you are not causing any trouble for me. Don't blame yourself. The enemy here is simply too strong for our current bracket."
Nantian Fengyu lowered her head and remained silent. Her eyes were filled with determination. She must become stronger as soon as possible and help Yun Lintian share his burdens.
The three of them spent a few hours recovering their strength and immediately set off again. This time, everyone became more cautious as they didn't want to get caught off guard again.
Along the way, Yun Lintian swept his eyes across the world in front of him, and he did not let his guard down at all. However, there was no trace of any mechanisms or people around here.
Yun Lintian halted in his tracks and turned to Nantian Fengyu. "Fifth Sister, do you still have that feeling?"
Nantian Fengyu frowned slightly and nodded. "Yes. I am certain that there must be something around here."
Yue Chuntao swept her spiritual senses all the way but couldn't find anything. "Are you sure? I don't see anything here."
"Big Brother Yun. There must be something below." Linlin suddenly spoke and pointed her paw towards the sea of lava below.
Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "I'll go down to take a look."
"Let's go together." Yue Chuntao said and created ice barriers to protect everyone.
The three of them then plunged into the lava afterward. A scorching sensation immediately wrapped around them. Even though they were protected by Yue Chuntao's ice barriers, they could still feel the heat. It was several times hotter than the air above.
Yun Lintian was certain that an ordinary practitioner would instantly melt upon touching this lava.
Yun Lintian and the other two stuck together and continued to dive into the seemingly boundless sea of crimson and gold.
After diving for an hour, Yun Lintian suddenly felt something. The souls of the Vermilion Bird and the Divine Phoenix inside his body became restless as if they were excited to see their long-lost friend.
He subconsciously looked at Nantian Fengyu, and their gazes met. She had also felt the same way.
"The Golden Crow God's legacy must be here."
